Chapter 8 More to it than it Seems
Marinette's POV:
Marinette decides there must be more to her jewelry than it seems. She is sure of it. She looks in her mirror once she gets home. She sees the colorful blend of colors it glows. She recalls there is an instruction booklet that came with the earrings.
"Now, where is it?" Marinette asks no one in particular.
She searches her place until she finds out. She is glad to discover the answers she seeks.
"Whoa, that is something I never thought to see," Marinette says in amazement.
The instructions read as follows: To the holder of the Miraculous use special care. This is not to be taken lightly. The gift you have is meant to be kept secret for the safety of you and the others who have one too. You have a great burden to carry but carry it well. Make sure not to mistaken humans for fairies as this is far too dangerous. The consequences could result in death amongst other things.
Only fairies can know the truth about all this and in time you may reveal yourself to another fairy when you fall in love. How can you know another fairy when they have their wings hidden as well. As hard as it may be to figure this out in time, you will learn to sense the presence of other fairies.
Best wishes to you,
Sincerely,
The keeper of the Miraculous
PS. In time, you will learn my identity as well since I am a fairy too.
Adrien' s POV:
Adrien sighs as he thinks about how fast Marinette took off again. He wonders if she will come back as she says. He believes it to good to be true. He shakes his head and sobs once more.
He notices an envelope on the garden bench beside him. He picks it up and carries it with him to his room. He opens it, sees it is from Marinette, and begins to read it.
Dear Adrien,
I am sorry, I had to rush off when I did, but I want you to know thanks for everything.
You are someone who will always hold a special place in my heart.
I will come back again as soon as I can. For now, I need to make sure my uncle is okay as it was his daughter who died. I worry about him since he has no other close relatives nearby.
Sincerely,
Marinette
Adrien's POV:
Adrien looks up when he hears a noise outside his bedroom window. He thinks strange who on earth could that be anyway? He goes to see and gasps. It is her the one who gave him the ring.
"What brings you here, Miss?" Adrien asks.
"Shh, the name is Chole, and I came to tell you I am the keeper of the Miraculous," She says.
"Keeper of the miraculous," Adrien states.
"Yes," Chole replies.
"You are a fairy too," Adrien says as if it just dawned on him that she is one of them.
"Yes, well, I have to share with you that the other fairies are alive," Chloe whispers.
"Whoa, hold on there is more than just you and I?" Adrien asks in surprise.
"Yes, there is my sister Aurore for one, and there are far more as well," She tells him.
Adrien can not believe his ears. He thought all this time he was the only fairy, but it turns out that it is not true. He wonders just how many others there are anyway. He begins to think there is no way Luka is one. He is sure of that as much as he is that Kagami is an ordinary person too.
The only thing is he is not sure about is who exactly the other fairies are yet.
Chole's POV :
Chole wonders if she makes a mistake sharing the vital secret like this with Adrien. It is not like he is the one for her. She knows her heart belongs to Nathaniel. She also knows her love for him will never fade.
She knows Adrien's sweetheart is closer than he thinks, but can not tell him this. She has to let him find this out for himself. She sure hopes the best for him and her.
"Adrien, you must not tell anyone else," Chole whispers.
"Fine, I promise to keep this to myself," Adrien tells her. He figures why not I mean I have kept the truth about the ring all this time.
"Good, I knew I could count on you," Chole says.
"Does Marinette know any of this?" Adrien asks.
"Marinette, oh her, Nah," Chloe lies. She can not tell him a thing about her. It is not her place to tell.
"Oh, I see," Adrien says. He looks disappointed.
"Be careful about who you trust, the fairies are not as easy to notice as they used to be you here," Chloe tells him.
Adrien nods his head in agreement, then Chole flies away fast. He smiles as he closes the window back. He sits on his bed and reads a book. This way if Luka comes to check on him, he will not suspect anything.
Narrator's POV:
Luka did not come to check on him that day. He was to busy with work. After work, he went on a date with Kagami and came back late. He felt like it was time he told Adrien the plans he had with Kagami. He was sure it was right so his brother could know there would soon be another person to share the place with and to see at all the meals. He hopes one day Adrien will settle down on his own.
Meanwhile, he intends to let his younger sibling stay on as long as he needs too. It would not do well for a Cuffaine to kick out their own flesh and blood even if that person was adopted. He felt like they are close enough to owe him this much.
